I wrote 4,000 words yesterday. I know, I know. That isn't nearly enough to catch up on how behind I am, but you have to admit, it's pretty good. Especially considering how exhausted I was after Election Day, that I also finished two books I was in the middle of, and...nope, that's it. That's all… Continue reading The Hallmark Writing Game

Election Day!
Guys. I am so exhausted as I write this right now. At 10:30 PM even though you won't see it until 7:00 AM tomorrow. As predicted, I got no writing done today. For that matter, I barely even ate today. We got up at 4:00 AM, were gone by 4:45, and at the precinct we… Continue reading Election Day!
None of the words…or the Panic
I finally made more progress! And by more progress, I mean that I wrote 2100 words today...I mean, yesterday...since I'm writing this post at 10:00 PM and scheduling it for 7:00 AM. Which isn't bad...unless you are like 9,000 words behind....Oh well. We still had a wreck of a house from our OCC Packing Party,… Continue reading None of the words…or the Panic
Weekend Distractions
So much for writing every day of NaNo, huh? Well, I have a good excuse, I promise! Saturday was our annual Operation Christmas Child Packing Party - a party in which we invite all of our friends to bring toys and eat lots of good food while they help pack shoeboxes for children overseas. Of… Continue reading Weekend Distractions
Getting Started
Okay, y'all knew this was coming. Well, at least those of you who have been around for a few years. I usually try to post every day of NaNo, and by the end I peter out. Anyway. I FINALLY DID IT. And by finally did it, I mean I re-read all 100,000 words I've already… Continue reading Getting Started
NaNoWriMo 2022
Guess what month it is? That's right! National Novel Writing Month! And...it's November 2nd. Is this the first time in years that I haven't posted on Nov. 1st for NaNo? Quite possibly. Yesterday was an off day for me. Okay, all week has been an off week for me. But, for those of you concerned,… Continue reading NaNoWriMo 2022
The Healing Art of Kintsugi
I know I didn't write last week, but I had a good reason. Well. A good-ish reason. Remember my promise to try and deliver a post with more substance? Well, I had so many things rolling around in my head that I couldn't decide what to put down. So I wrote nothing at all as… Continue reading The Healing Art of Kintsugi
Vacation Vibes
Guys, I didn't know it was possible. But I'm actually ready to take a break from cooking shows. I did nothing but sit around for almost a week, watching Chopped, Sweet Genius, Cake Wars, and squeezing in a couple episodes of Guy's Grocery Games as well. Okay, and I read four...no, five books. Five? I… Continue reading Vacation Vibes
Just a Wave
Yes, I am finally taking that break. So I thought I would just stop by and say hello. One, to let you know that I am taking the vacation and two, that I intend to watch mostly cooking shows the entire time. Competitive cooking shows are my kryptonite. Which is ironic, since I can't stand… Continue reading Just a Wave
Trying to Vacation
I've decided to take a vacation. That's right. I'm giving myself a vacation. Because I'm my own boss. So I can do that. At least, that's what my husband tells me. I'm still trying to convince my boss (aka, the critic I believe I previously named Chadwick) that it is all right. At first, I… Continue reading Trying to Vacation
